I hope these builds let you use this interesting primary to its fullest potential! It may take a bit to get used to but Ive found myself coming back to the LOK more and more since playing with these set ups. If you like the voice of the LOK in this video and would like to unmute yours to hear what it has to say, I may have a mod working and uploaded that allows you to do just that on mod.io in the near future. Ill keep you posted!
Rock and Stone!

LOK-1 VOICE MODULE MOD IS DONE!
Download the mod to hear Lookie in-game here: drg.mod.io/lok-1-voice-module
I didn’t expect there to be so many voicelines in the mod.
So I downloaded the Sirvend Management mod, and it is hilarious! Some of my favourite quotes (not perfectly word for word but close):
"That's it! If I see ONE of you flossing, I'm closing down the bar."
"Reinforcement inbound! Wait, that's not a miner, but a supply pod?! Then where the hell did he go? Oh, sh.....!"
"Management wants you to go down to do some blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda. Just do it and make it back okay?"
"Hey, we have a dwarf who has been missing from anger management class. If you see him down there, let us know?"
Glad you like it!
Can you please tell what other mods you are using in this video? Weapons on the spacerig? Glyphids on the spacerig? Isn't this a violation? Management won't be pleased when they find out :D
I've had Lookie in my game forever now, never knew he came from here 😮
Actually according to the reveal video R&D didn't actually produce the LOK1.
Engineer designed the LOK1 and management cleared it for use.
Who do you think figured out how fo use those aftermarket parts? Haha
"For the engineers among you"
Jokes on you I, like all chads, play all classes equally.
Same, but it’s very slow promoting them :(
Although it’s great for getting to know your strengths and which class and load out are best for each mission! (Plus the faster player level ups are great too)
@@monsterbbq8176 eh, after the first one it dsent matter too much, least thats how I see it
no, among US
@@monsterbbq8176 once you've promoted all classes at least once, they start to fly by.
@@monsterbbq8176
It getted me to know how much their noob scout out there with crystal level
I love the lok with rj250 the most because it allows you to accurately shoot targets while moving at the incredibly high speeds that come with rj250. Feels pretty awesome.
Exactly!
I have never thought of trying that. Will definitely take that for a spin!
@@JackofNothingess if you don’t like the rj250 build in this vid try this one:
1
2
1

1
It features more damage and aoe but with less ammo at 15 rounds. Fire will burn anything to a crisp because it has no area falloff unlike the straight area damage mods.
Edit: you will also might want a primary with decent single target damage, since this build is fully aoe.
now we need a mod that puts the lok on scout
Also it can explode thing. As such is perfect.
Fun Fact:
The damage bonus given by T3 Electro-Chemical Rounds stacks for both electrified and burning status effects. Because of this, my main LOK-1 build is 21111 Seeker Rounds (choose whatever lens mods you want though), and the Inferno Breach Cutter set to 11123 (choose whatever T5 you want). Executioner would give even more damage but I cannot deal with any less ammo on the LOK-1.
Other Fun Fact:
T5 electrical generator can do some funky stuff, It requires a lock of 3 bullets to one target before it shoots an electrified bullet, however this electrified bullet is the very first bullet that is fired. This means that you can cancel the other 2 normal shots and let electricity deal DOT. This is only really useful against a single target that isn't really a threat in the moment, but it can save ammo if used well.
Ohhh nice tips, didn't know that about electrical generator

Always faster than I am at these haha Thanks man, Rock and Stone!
@@siirvend Rock and Stone brother!
Something important to note for the mod that boosts damage for electrified and burning targets, the two bonuses can stack, doing 40% bonus damage if the enemy has both statuses.
Ahhh that's great, I figured they did but was never certain
now i really wish the LOK1 actually talked in game XD, i mean who wouldn't want a talking gun!
@Icyn yes
Dante from the hit game series Devil may cry 3
Not me.
I think it would be cool if it did a little whistle or chirp whenever it killed a big enemy, like it’s proud of itself
High on Life, Cyberpunk 2077
The Lok is a gun I have a decent amount of OCs for but still need help getting the hang of, this video had a lot of interesting and informative tips! Already can't wait for the next one, amazing work as always!
Ya got the scrappy, "this shouldn't work", violation of common sense humor of DRG down pat in these intros man.
May i suggest using Explosive Rounds OC with Hyper Propellant instead of Clean Sweep? In my experience LOK with ER have already good crowd control, ant Hyper Propellant helps greatly with praetorians, oppressors and spitballers. W/o it, the ammo economy suffers greatly when dealing with those beefy targets, IMO.
I agree that the build takes a bit more work to take out beefy guys but I find ways to work around that with damage over time, usually saving them for last or if I have a team, letting them go for the chunky boys. I just tend not to bring Hyper on non-dreadnought, Sabotage or Escort missions because I feel like its a bit overkill in most instances.
@@siirvend A Hyper against praetorians, oppressors and breeders can make quick work of them, and they can appear on any mission. Also a must-have for rival incursion missions for its ability to delete patrol bots, sniper turrets and trivialize the nemesis.
The editing and effort in all these videos is absolutely amazing, and incredibly fun. All the little details, the framing of the video subject, and especially all the comments from the Lok-1 as well. This and the BET-C videos are my favourites, though the biomes one comes really close to competing with them, and has some awesome theories behind the planet and explanations for what we see going down. So far every video has just been hitting it out of the park though. Just a few 11s in a wide array of 10/10s Really looking forwards to the next one!
That means so much, thank you! I'll keep em coming! Rock N Stone!
Absolutely great stuff man, loved the script and edits but the content is top shelf. You explore builds like none other. R&S brother
god dam the Lok1 is fun to use! i really like to use executioner build for runs where i'm playing as a hunter for high danger lvl enemies like acid spitters, menaces and armored enemies. the ECR oc is really fun to use when no gunner exist to clean big waves of bugs. and seeker rounds clean ur head not only from aiming, but from even trying to hit ur target (bc u will always hit it).
tnx for fun vid. hope u're doing well, Siirvend sir. Rock and Stone!
Thanks, Im doing well! A little tired after finishing this one but good!
Gotta say, i really love the immersion that you place on your videos! Please keep them coming!
Can do!
Damn, JaydedTurtle did a dope job providing lines for the LOK-1 👀
Love your work!!! The Lasso slowdown on dreads looks insane, can't wait to try it out
…I’ve only just realised that it’s “LOK-1” because it locks on, and not just for the Norse mythology reference,
I must say, I’ve become quite endeared to your vision of DRG. Specifically, your ideas about the background behind the weapons and enemies in the game.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy my take on stuff. I love the subtle storytelling and implications of the game world GSG sprinkles in here and there.
@@siirvend …I really want elves to be a thing in DRG eventually. Maybe as a protest group or something.
That’s the kind of thing that I like about DRG, there’s a lot going on, it just hasn’t been fleshed out yet.
I've only used the lok1 with explosive rounds since I got the overclock, but now I'll try these builds out! Blowthrough makes much more sense knowing I can aim for the back bugs instead of the front, I should've thought of that.
Here we go!
Iirc, the XCR oc's explosions already proc fear regardless, so I'd run the electrocution rounds. Works fantastic against the caretaker and bots/turrets
I do both actually. I still like the assurance of the fear proc on my self when shit hits the fan but if I'm with a team I run electricity. I feel I should have added a voice line rather than a text blurb about that.
i wanted to get the seeker rounds overclock, unfortunately i didnt have any cores or missions to get any, i was however only 1 forge from reaching a mastery granting me an overclock.
i got the overclock in that mastery level, and if i did my maths correctly that was a 1/104 chance
on top of that i had just the perfect amount of magnite to forge the overclock and not a piece more.
lady luck is on my side today
Karl favors you this day
@@siirvend my first mission with the overclock had a pot o gold crassus, karls blessing will forever be appreciated.
The Lok is my favourite gun! Also looking forward to how you're going to make the Drak interesting and fun to use!
Literally use rewire mod with all the fire rate, damage, and electric mods. Playing solo I never need to resupply and multiplayer I can skip the first resupply, its so ammo efficient and when you pair it with the zukhovs with critical weak spot damage and ammo, you are able to constantly be firing and never run out of ammo
@@collectiveleak Zukhovs is a scout weapon????
From a sir to a siir you did a mighty fine job on this video RNS
I should probably tell you that what you have there is a prototype of the LOK-1 I’ve been working on. This was supposed to essentially give you a heads up on flanking bugs and a way to help lonely miners forced to work with the A.I., I call him Looker. However as you can tell, his supposed human- er dwarven personality programming is a work in progress and makes him a bit more annoying rather than helpful. The amount of data I’ve gotten for improving him has been drastic compared to what I’ve been doing so I ask you hold onto Looker for a bit more so I can finalize him, but I can understand if you just want to give him back to me.
Perfect timing! Just in time for new secondaries!
Love your videos man! Keep em coming
You finished it? Lets gooooooo!!!!!
TOOK ME LONG ENOUGH
@@siirvend I hope I can use one of these builds eventually and have a blast :)
Quality content! Keep up the amazing work, your videos always keep me engaged
Always love your videos man, thanks for the upload!
Dude these are amazing!!
My favorite lok-1 build is one i feature in my "ultimate stun/slowdown"/ "caretaker assault" or just "anti bot" build.
Nuero lasso built for max targets, high ammo, and fear.
Paired with the double turrets with the dmg/stun, the shard diffractor with extra heat mod, extra mag space, slowdown mod, the mag empty oc, and the shredders, this build is designed to bring targets big and small to a crawl.
Particularly good on caretaker missions as well. The shard diffractor can take out turrets in seconds even if they have their shield up, the turrets and shredders help thin the herd, and the lok/diffractor themselves can keep groups and big targets away.
And the caretaker fight is easy enough as well. Stack some pancakes between two arms, set up the turrets on either side and plop down a resupply and you can use your various tools to assault the caretaker.
Being able to mag dump the shard diffractor at the last moment if things turn sour is nice, especially with the extra mag space.
Edit: just realized i also posted this on the engineer builds video.
Hell yea been waiting for this. One of my favourite utubers and my favourite gun
Something I'd like to note is that the stun upgrade on the RJ250 is pretty nice, stunned grunts usually won't be able to act again before they burn to death
i needed a vid like this cause this gun is too smart for my big dumb brain
So, Neuro-lasso causes the bugs' muscles to spasm uncontrollably by emitting electricity, slowing down movement - that's a simplified version of what Siirvend said. To put it even more simply, the LOK-1's electro-waves force the bugs to quake, messing up their movement. And to put *even even more* simply, the bugs shake and they can't do stuff 'bout it. Basically, it electrocutes them.
i haven't really unlocked overclocks yet, i just got my first promotion as engi, but honestly lok is just hype to use and i love it very much
Another beautiful video
Great video!
... Was looking for good Engi guides, being a tried and true Engi myself. What a surprise to find someone who not only does *multiple* builds, but also does some fantastic skits sprinkled throughout them as well. (Loved the Smart Stouts littering the floor, btw.) Now I'm wishing I had a mod that made my LOK-1 chattier...
You've got some great stuff here, glad to have found you! Hopefully someday you'll cover the Shard Diffractor - as fun as it is to channel a potentially intelligent silicate organism as a heat ray into creatures, I haven't quite figured out how to put the thing together after getting used to the Breach Cutter for so, so long. A build where both my primary and secondary technically having a brain installed in them to work both sounds appropriately Engi Main, but also sounds like the ultimate squad goals.
(As a plus, loved the overly nerdy explanation for the Neuro-lasso. There's reasons I main the "geeky" classes in games, and my living for that kind of overexplanation is one such reason. :D)
Hey thank you! I love it when people notice the little stuff I put in, makes it worth the extra work haha!
Oh and about the LOK-1 being chattier, you picked the perfect night to mention that. Just finished a mod with the same voice actor to do just that: drg.mod.io/lok-1-voice-module/?sort=replyposition-asc#commentform
@@siirvend Oh hot diddly-dang, that is awesome! Talk about good timing. :D
My favorite NG set thus far: (only items listed are required)
Shotgun: Turret Whip (mod) and Mini Shells (OC)
Turret: Gemini
with this set you can use the shotgun as much as you like, while still being able to spam the turret whip as much as you like. The Gemini system is used to allow even faster spamming.
Adding to that: The Defender system is my preferred version bc more damage per shot means more bang for the buck, literally. Plus, the focused scan angle appeals to a part of me that likes strategic, tower defense style play even if I don't actually like tower defense games. I do like my dakka builds
Don't forget extra spam if you convince another player to run Gemini because it works on other people's turrets
I love the in-universe perspective this takes
This gun has a REALLY long reload animation, to really master this gun its important to reload animation cancel!
2:21
"Utilizing grenades effectively"
Execution OC was what made it hit the sweet spot for me.
I was wondering when the next video would come, on my beloved Lok-1 of all things!
I love that thing, so versatile and I've gotten to the point that I don't struggle with ammo at all while still being efficient at killing bugs, I'll definitely give another shot to Neuro-Lasso after this, only gripe is that Fear Frequency on the Lok-1 with ECR is pretty redundant, the explosions already induce fear since you fire out so many
Also, what's your opinion on the Season 2 things? Comsetics, the new enemy and the new toys?
So with the fear on the first build, I did say that Electrical Generator was just as viable in the little tip, I totally agree. The reason I go with the fear on the gun as opposed to relying on the explosions fear is because the guns fear can be modulated to be more powerful and wider than the explosions. Its also much more consistent when you want to proc it because Ive noticed fear explosions on smaller booms to be weaker in potency. Just my 2 cents on it.
@@siirvend
You did mention about a scaling to Fear Frequency so I guess I gotta do some science when I get to it
Thoughts on the other question?
Also, thank you for the videos, they've all been really useful, I raccomend your builds and videos to my friends all the time and my loadouts have become very efficient, though I tweaked them all in some way or another, awesome stuff
I've been using this one build for fun. I call it "The Forsaken" or "Feral Engineer" and my headcanon around it is that "what if the engineer got left behind?"
It's a very resourceful if a bit lazy style of play. The kit includes Lok-1 Smart Rifle with Seeker Rounds and 22323, Shard Diffractor with Volatile Impact Reactor and 32113, Pickaxe with 13, Sentry Guns with 1221, Platform Gun with 212, S.S.G. shredder grenades, and the Armor rig with 1212. Perks include Thorns, Elemental Insulation, Veteran Depositor, Glyphid Charmer, and Dash, but sometimes I'll swap out VD and Dash for something else like Vampire and Iron Will or whatever. And finally Bosco with 31133 as my general all purpose build.
And finally this build would not be complete without equipping the VERY IMPORTANT drip, Dawn of the dread armor with the skull cap, Beige skin tone, and whatever whacky style of sideburns mustache and beard you can come up with to appear as unhinged and feral and buglike as possible, (rn I have Frazzled Crest, Extreme Roadster, and Bulbous Upturn) and ofc for weapons i use bug hide pickaxe and glyphid trophy hunter weapons , all with darker and more raggedy colors
This style is centered around playing defensively and resourcefulness as stated earlier, and is a bit of a jack of all trades centered around solo Hazard 5 play but only needs minor tweaking if you do co-op. I even have my own bit of lore I came up with for this build if anyone cares to read it, but I've already written a short novel here as it is so maybe I'll post later :)
Rock and Stone!
Hey I actually use something really similar! I'm indecisive between VIR and Feedback Loop for the Diffrractor but they pair really well with Seeker Rounds.
@Siirvend feedback loop is great but I just can't get over how good VIR is vs the seas of swarmers I often get when passing near those purple bug holes in the walls, and it's like a free sticky flames crisper, slowing down and burning enemies, plus with dazzler it can nearly immobilize praetorians and oppressors, I just find it too good to pass up for anything else, using it for direct damage just feels wrong since it lasts so much longer with quick DoT squirts on the ground c:
"Well, safety regulations haven't stopped us before."
"What?"
_BOOM_
Fantastic editing on all of these.
Thanks! I've been looking to try different builds because all I use are explosive chemical and executioner.
The explanation of the neuro-link working followed by the disclaimer killed me 🤣
So I know I'm super late to the party, but I onetrick rj250, and the disabled inertia inhibitor on the plg itself is much more useful than on the platform gun. The fall damage reduction on the platform gun can be inconsistent (it doesn't always work), and you'll still take a lot of damage at higher velocities. Stopping your fall with the rj250 itself is much more consistent, requires less planning, and completely removes fall damage instead of just dampening it. I think fall damage prevention is the reason the rj250 comes with a reload speed increase.
So honestly rj250 is a good reason NOT to get disabled inertia inhibitor on your platform gun. There might be an argument that spiky grenade is more useful than Repellant Additive in some situations. But personally I value Repellant Additive more and even if I didn't, I'd probably still go with that option due to how much more freedom it gives me while jumping.
As someone who got 3 lok 1 overclock in a row without owning it (i think it was explosive chemical rounds, eraser and armor breaking module), i look forwards to using them when adquiring the gun
"This is kinda . . . fun" i think i know how this video ends. By the lok 1 going full micheal myers and taking sadistic joy from insect murder
Thank you!
I love the implication that these videos are what drew the rival to hoxxes
SHHHH
i still do not understand how people can control their jumps that well with the rj250
everytime i shoot that thing its like rolling a dice, i never know how high of far im gonna go
It takes a bit if practice but I think it helps to do it backwards. It let's you control how far away the grenade shockwave is from you, letting you aim yourself more vertically or horizontally. I try to do long jumps more often because the higher jumps become much less controllable.
For me it's similar to rocket jumping in TF2, if you've ever played that game. I kind of walk in the direction I want to fly, flick my rocket launcher downward and try to jump and fire at the same time.
Also, always have a landing spot in mind before you attempt jump with RJ250. Fall damage is a bitch in this game, so don't be afraid to put down some emergency plats near the ground too incase you miss your jump.
"You can't get dead drunk and go on a mission! You'll never hit anything with your weapons!"
"Haha! Joke's on you, leaf lover, my gun aims for me. I can be as drunk as I want and still mow down enemies!" [falls off cliff and needs a revive]
UA-cam did not notify me that this vid was up
UA-cam at it again haha
That's called quality content
i love this channel
6:00 actually grunts are left with a sliver of health after the 3rd shot on hazard 5 iirc from LazyMaybe’s video.
Ah, I suppose I wasn't testing in a sterile environment. It functions fine for me since they either take tiny scratch damage at some point or feed my Vampire proc addiction haha
@@siirvendyeah since the 2 months you replied I found it more fun to just poke them for the +5 health lol.
Quite an informative review of this Weapon System! Though I can't help but notice the modification of SMЯT Targeting Software was completely absent from this review. I'm guessing that the extra damage and practice of timing bursts makes up for any lost ammo from overlocks? Say for example; a 4 round burst on a stray Swarmer?
That's the thing, a 4 round burst on a swarmer will never spend more shots than necessary to kill it. SmRt Targeting only prevents you from locking onto the swarmer more times than needed to kill it. That, to me, is rarely useful and in the case for some builds, actually detrimental for the function, like with the first build and its explosive rounds. I wish I had more uses for it but after a lot of testing with it, I just couldn't find one you know?
@@siirvend I’ve only just unlocked the lok-1 but the “prevent you from overlocking” allows you to discharge the second it stops locking onto a target in order to kill them instantly. I’m planning on experimenting with macro lense and shutter speed to see how effective this strategy is. Btw great review!
@@siirvend Ah I see, thanks for clarrifying on this! I must have misunderstood the function in thinking every lock was a guaranteed occasion it would fire on a target. Now that you describe it like this, the only reason I can see this being useful is taking out as many swarmers as possible with a full lock; if you're doing that too often I think you're forgetting the Sentry Gun in your back pocket.
Thanks for clearing this up ^^
@@deanmckellar619 hey no problem! It's a weird mod in general lol
Ive been enjoying Execitioner alot now thx to Shard Defractor specced for AoE and the Seeker Drone Nades.
I feel like goddamn Gundam as Engi 💪
Amazing video as always!
One thing I'd like to see is for you to use the "chapter" feature for videos, the thing where it splits the play bar into, well, chapters (don't know how it works exactly, but I'd make it far easier going back in video to check the different builds)
Oh yeah, I gotta do that with this video still, thanks for the reminder!
Here I am watching another builds video when I know full well that I will stick with what I always use.
Nothing wrong with that, but it's never bad to shake things up from time to time
It was a huge relief hearing him call it the "Lok one" and not the Loki like some other dwarves have been
It's supposed to be "Lok one" right? So it sounds like "Lock on"
@@bakshir yes however some dwarves seem to have mistook the 1 for an I somehow
@@Fennalope I call it that because I feel like a god of arcane fuckery while using it.
I feel like stubby with turret em discharge is the only engi primary that wont be hurting too badly for ammo if you use it as your primary weapon for general shooting and swarm clear. You can then save your secondary for high value targets
It really depends on the combo for engie. I build to have one or the other focused on swarm cleat and the other focused on single target so that it's more clear to me which one to switch to and when. Like with the EM Stubby, I use the blender OC so that I can't remove high hp threats to use the stubby on more of the small guys
For the giant tamer maybe bringing a couple mines to kite the dreadnaught into and then slowing it so it stays inside their range during all explosions might be good.
I actually do suggest that!
By the way, what are your thoughts on the new content (Rival lore etc) and weapons from DRG?
I figured this may come up in a new video very soon?
I'm loving what they've added so far, the bots are difficult but different enough from the bugs it adds a fresh layer of danger to missions. I do think some of the events could be polished a bit more as far as difficulty goes but I'm happy regardless.
The new weapons are great, I've been messing with them a lot and will definitely be doing videos covering a few builds for each.
I think it's time we kick this up a notch--KARL Builds: The Builds for the Ages.
No mere mortal could craft such a build...
@@siirvend *Turns off your hud* Now you can lol
Thanks to this video lok 1 is my favourite gun
Thanks
5 shart builds that will beam you with delight
It's still got the drone video recorder and photo system on it.
lok-1's comments are hilarious, and I love them!
I have an unquenchable addiction to mag dumping the Loki. Also, as far as I'm concerned, seeker rounds works by firing the bullets directly into a compartment full of the wormhole special stored in the guns barrel.
This is unironically how this works in my head now
15:17 alternatively you could fly _over_ the swarm locking onto every bug and firing once you get behind it.
Who needs scouts amirite?
@@siirvend Yes sir!
Engineer is getting the most fun weapons among these new updates.
I don’t play a lot of engi but I want to promote every dwarf at least once, and I already have almost all the overclocks for the loc
Is no one gonna talk about the countless glasses of Smart Stout in the upgrade area?
I do (not) have a problem
Praise the lord siirvend has uploaded
i finally figured it out why your thumbnails look familiar, they look like the one's ahoy makes
Right? Ive watched all of Ahoys videos a while back. Never had it in mind to emulate him but after it was pointed out to me I cant unsee it. Hes definitely an influence on my style.
RnD are keeping you busy with even more weapons on the way too!!!
Yeah I really gotta kick things into gear for April and May
YOUR ALIVE!
Siirvend and lok-1 reminds me of C3-P0 and R2-D2
ooooo mumma new video
For next season you should name a video 6 crossbow builds that will sharpen your senses
Thats a good one hehe
@@siirvend my favorite overclock they showed was one when you hit the enemy they get radiation blisters so get get diy weakpoints
Are-are those Smart Stout mugs around the weapon workshop terminal? Did YOU need to drink all those to understand how the LOK-1 works?! Damn bro, must be rough trying to figure out the nonsense behind R&D
I have a problem
Honestly, now thay Im rewatching this I didn't realize we both have character named gerald. Maybe when I initially watched this I came up with the name for a goo bomber build for driller.
Wait we both do? Haha
Luckily I unlocked it yesterday, so I'm just going to ctrl v and paste the executioner Loudoun than I you very much
That’s a lot of smart stouts
I don't have a problem
Hey! I thought bugs weren’t allowed on the space rig!
Shhhhhhhhhh
@@siirvend I still don’t understand how to add bugs to the space station, please tell me.
@@innervoid2118 so at this point in time, I can't do so either anymore. I was using the twitch integration mod to add them in but now neither it nor Game Tools allow you to spawn bugs in rhe rig. I can't probably ask the mod dev if we can have that back because I miss it too.
@@siirvend Thanks for the quick response. It's a pity that this can no longer be done, I searched half the Internet to understand how to do it, it looks like I'll have to use the sandbox
I run LOK 21111 Executioner OC, with PGL 21122 RJ 250, or BC 11122 infrno OC, perks are vamp, born ready, thorns, dash, iron will, turret 2211, plasma burster, and armor 1111.
Few questions/remarks/other-things-I'll-think-of-as-I-write-this-comment:
1) I notice you always have the Incendiary Compound upgrade on the PGL and never the armor breaker upgrade. Is incendiary just that much better, because I always thought instantly clearing a wave with some utility against armored enemies was better than letting the wave die ten seconds seconds later?
2) Do you have a video planned for the Shard Diffractor? I find its single-target damage completely absurd even with just the Soft Tissue Disruption upgrade, though I'm not sure about its AOE capabilities, even though I have the Endothermic Explosion overclock.
3) What do you think of the LOK-1 compared to the other Engineer primaries? I've tried it before but I'm not sure if I preferred it to the Warthog or Stubby. Maybe I just wasn't using the right build, I remember using the SMRT Targeting Software instead Blowthrough Rounds, plus I don't have any overclocks for the gun yet. I'll have to give it another shot
Hey! Ill answer them in order:
1) So, the reason for using Incendiary Compound on hazard 5 is not readily obvious but I prefer it because it helps clear more bugs overall, at least when youre using it for grunts and smaller. You do more direct and explosion damage without the conversion with Armor Breaker, true, but what it doesnt say is that the Incendiary Compound applies the converted fire damage without fall-off. The damage normally gets lower the further out from the center of the explosion, meaning you kill the bugs you hit close to but not all of them. The fire damage applies to everything that is touched by the explosion, so even bugs that are barely scratched by the explosion damage get ignited at the same time as being feared. For grunts and similar bugs, this means certain death. With how numerous waves become on Haz 5, it can really save you ammo and allow you to divert your attention rather than cleaning up numerous half damaged bugs. Im not saying Armor Breaker is bad btw, just that I prefer to apply the fire DoT to clear the trash from the wave rather than go for heavy hits.
2) I do in fact! Ive been playing with it since it came out and have more than a few set ups Im liking, including a few that utilize AoE damage to great effect. Endothermic Explosion, Volatile Impact Reactor and Feedback Loop are all OCs that do AoE crowd clearing really well and Im excited to show them off when I get to the Diffractor for a video.
3) The LOK-1 is interesting when compare to the other two primaries and I would say that it definitely needs overclocks to truly shine, unlike the other two that function a bit easier without the added oommf. The OC-less build in this video is definitely no pushover though. The LOKs role though is a bit different than the other two in that you want to know when to use it and when to rely on your secondary to clear groups, it kills fast but cant shoulder entire swarms on its own due to its ammo economy. As for SMRT Targeting, I really just dont have any use for its functionality, especially when most of my builds center around reaching a certain number of locks regardless of a targets HP.
Id say, get some OCs for it and give it another try, the utility the weapon boasts is fantastic once you get into the groove of using it.
@@siirvend Ah, now the incendiaries make sense, and I can't wait for the Death Star to become fully operational. Also, I did retry the LOK without an overclock but with breakthrough rounds to satisfactory results. Then again I only play on Haz 3 regularly so the builds may change with Haz 4 and 5.
Your shart build has been improved
Oh yeah, the RoF increase made it crazy good since the update!
@@siirvend and no ammo drawback
And now chargeup penalty
Do you know my smart rifle has also banner divulging into the mining part because it’s also pointed out summer red ore that I didn’t notice quite a lot.
On my secondary I like using the PGL with compact rounds OC using 3-2-2-2-2
i love the pgl it just goes
FWOOP *BOOM*
What I’m wondering is why do they laser trackers spark when they touch terrain?
Aren’t they just a HUD element?
I think its probably an AR thing and might use a physical IR laser to draw bullet trajectories
I can not get into the lok-1 sadly. although the idea is great and cool, I am in love with turret whip. If the lok-1 had something that could interact with turrets in a meaningful way, it'd get boosted a lot in my eyes. Currently its standing out as the only primary to not interact with the turrets, and that sucks :(
would be cool if the lok had an overclock where you can give the eye to a turret which would boost its rate of fire and make all bullets swerve to hit the weakpoints of enemies, to the downside of not having lock on yourself for a short period of time.
